Discriminant of Certain K3 Surfaces

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Progress in Mathematics ((PM,volume 255))

Summary

In this article we study the discriminant of those K3 surfaces with involution which were introduced and investigated by Matsumoto, Sasaki, and Yoshida. We extend several classical results on the discriminant of elliptic curves to the discriminant of Matsumoto– Sasaki–Yoshida’s K3 surfaces.
